Michael "Sugar" Pierce is the thirty year old protagonist of this gothic-gangster-surreal novel that brutally yet poetically confronts America's favorite unspoken blood sport, murder. A Caucasian American mobster lost among Asian American mobsters on the Malibu coast of Southern California's Pacific Rim, Michael Pierce is a foreigner in his own land. Love, death, the present and the past intertwine in a savage ritual dance for Pierce's soul as he attempts to atone for the murder of the man he considers his "blood brother", Simon Rhee, and at the same time save the love of his life, Simon's widow, Katherine Song Rhee. Sugar of Lead poses these questions: can a stone killer, a man stained with the blood of many individuals, still redeem, if not his own life, then at least the life of another? Is there anything of human value left in such a man? Can this man alchemize from the very poison that has so crippled his existence? Sugar of Lead offers surprising answers to all these questions.
